 39      V, 1intro|      might a man profess to be an apostle of Christ! But still, for
 40      V, 1intro|           Christ, let there be an apostle, although of another god;
 41      V, 1intro|          long ago promised me the Apostle Paul. For among the types

 52      V, 1intro|           revealed not even by an apostle. We have laid down this
 53      V, 1intro|           same method here in the apostle's case as we adopted before

 60      V, 2     |     gospels for two gods; and the apostle made a great mistake when
 61      V, 2     |           neither an angel nor an apostle ought to be; not that he
 62      V, 2     |           from a persecutor to an apostle confirming thereby the Acts
 63      V, 2     |       found in agreement with the apostle, on the one hand, when they

 66      V, 3     |         point)? For the rest, the apostle must (be permitted to) go
 67      V, 3     |       said this, yet you have the apostle here confirming the prophets,
 68      V, 3     |           us," is declared by the apostle himself in a way which quite

 71      V, 4     |         OF TIME, ANNOUNCED BY THE APOSTLE, FORETOLD BY THE PROPHETS.
 72      V, 4     |        there was a figure (as the apostle wrote it); because after
 73      V, 4     |          may be affirmed that the apostle determined nothing to the
 74      V, 4     |          world. The world, in the apostle's sense, here means life
 75      V, 5     |           usual) health which the apostle prescribes for those to
 76      V, 5     |          use, it follows that the apostle, when treating of the Creator, (
 77      V, 6     |         SUNDRY INJUNCTIONS OF THE APOSTLE PARALLEL WITH THE TEACHING
 78      V, 6     |      allegories. But because (the apostle) subjoins, on the subject
 79      V, 6     |          the Creator's, since the apostle imputes ignorance to them,
 80      V, 6     |          to Marcion, however, the apostle in the passage under consideration
 81      V, 6     |          of this world." But (the apostle) evidently did not speak
 82      V, 6     |     self-same Scripture which the apostle also relies on? What has
 83      V, 6     |       from our God? For when (the apostle) calls himself "a wise master-builder,"
 84      V, 6     |   testimony turns up in what (the apostle) here adjoins: "For it is

 86      V, 7     |          the noble courage of our apostle (to say nothing of the Holy

 93      V, 7     |           no such authority! (The apostle) says: "Thou shalt not muzzle
 94      V, 7     |          whole declaration of the apostle lacks a reasonable basis,
 95      V, 7     |  discipline. But the fact is, the apostle's conclusion corresponds
 96      V, 8     |          DESCRIBED BY ISAIAH. THE APOSTLE AND THE PROPHET COMPARED.
 97      V, 8     |           in this way too has the apostle maintained the discipline
 98      V, 8     |        shown before now, that the apostle classes heresies as evil
 99      V, 8     |           spiritual gifts (as the apostle says, "When the fulness
100      V, 8     |         they are described by the apostle, and promised by the prophet
101      V, 8     |           knowledge." See how the apostle agrees with the prophet
102      V, 8     |         Spirit, (according to the apostle's showing,) meant not that
103      V, 8     |         gifts, He even taught the apostle that it was the chief commandment,
104      V, 8     |           and the Spirit, and the apostle, belong severally to my
105      V, 9     |        time. When, therefore, the apostle refutes those who deny the
106      V, 9     |            But at this point (the apostle) has made a parenthetical
107      V, 9     |          having been, (to use the apostle's phrase,) "put under His
108      V, 10    |         not then suppose that the apostle here indicates some new
109      V, 10    |         resurrection. We have the apostle in another passage defining "
110      V, 10    |           next question which the apostle has discussed equally relates
111      V, 10    |        refuted even from what the apostle advances respecting the
112      V, 10    |          reason for supposing the apostle to say that the soul is
113      V, 10    |       Adam" and the "man" (of the apostle). What follows will also
114      V, 10    |        much for him. For when the apostle says, "As is the earthy,"
115      V, 10    | corruptible" and as he spake, the apostle seemingly pointed to his
116      V, 10    |         it. Rightly then does the apostle declare, "Flesh and blood
117      V, 11    |         unfulfilled? What had the apostle of a strange Christ to complain
118      V, 11    |          is Christ. Wherefore the apostle said above: Christ, who

120      V, 12    |    HERETICAL VIEWS ABOUT HIM; THE APOSTLE'S SHARPNESS, OR SEVERITY,
121      V, 12    |         Creator's "to buffet" the apostle, and then to have refused
122      V, 12    |     object to be feared, when his apostle was for making himself so

124      V, 13    |       that God is declared by the apostle to be a Judge; and that
125      V, 13    |          to my gospel," says (the apostle), "by (Jesus) Christ." So
126      V, 13    |          then to suppose that the apostle abstained through fear from
127      V, 13    |           outwardly;" because the apostle would have preferred not
128      V, 13    |        God forbid!" (See how) the apostle recoils from all impeachment
129      V, 13    |           God of the law what His apostle dares not impute even to
130      V, 14    |         JEWS ARE UPBRAIDED BY THE APOSTLE FOR THEIR MISCONDUCT TO
131      V, 14    |            is not a likeness. The apostle, however, himself here comes
132      V, 14    |     alight on the place where the apostle bears record of Israel "
133      V, 14    |        the Creator; otherwise the apostle would not have been just
134      V, 14    |        his erasures, why does his apostle utter such an exclamation,
135      V, 14    |          Isaiah said, and of (the apostle's own) subsequent quotation
136      V, 14    |           thy self?" (Again, your apostle says:) "Rejoicing in hope;"
137      V, 14    |         and curse not,"(says your apostle.) But what better teacher
138      V, 15    |           has this to do with the apostle of the rival god, one so
139      V, 15    |   matrimony. This passage (of the apostle) I would treat in such a
140      V, 15    |          clearly seen of what the apostle spoke, even of those things
141      V, 15    |       tell me) how is it that the apostle has given certain distinct
142      V, 16    |        that as the Lord is by the apostle proclaimed s as the awarder
143      V, 16    |          clearly seen. For as the apostle declares that the Lord will
144      V, 16    |          ignorant of Him. In the (apostle's) phrase, "From the presence
145      V, 16    | prophecies, and especially by the Apostle John, who says that "already
146      V, 17    |           to a certain church the apostle did in fact write to all?
147      V, 17    |          words announce, when the apostle says: "That we should be
148      V, 17    |       also foretrusted. Hence the apostle refers the statement to
149      V, 17    |           more applicable and the apostle knew very well who that

151      V, 17    |           to the Creator. But the apostle, too, had lived in Judaism;
152      V, 17    |           of wrath. For when (the apostle) says," We were by nature
153      V, 17    |        the Creator from afar. The apostle had in mind that it had
154      V, 17    |        refer to flesh, as if (the apostle spoke) of a carnal enmity,
155      V, 17    |  foundation of the apostles" (the apostle added), "and the prophets;"
156      V, 17    |       ancient prophets, since the apostle himself never fails to build

158      V, 18    |         his effacing process. The apostle declares that to himself, "
159      V, 18    |        flagrantly absurd. For the apostle goes on to infer (from his
160      V, 18    |        sovereign Lord. Or if (the apostle) did not mention God in

165      V, 18    | difficulty in knowing to whom the apostle also belongs. But he declares

167      V, 18    |      flesh and the spirit, by the apostle's help who applies the Creator'
168      V, 18    |          in the estimation of the apostle, although they are so vilely
169      V, 18    |          thy mother." Again, (the apostle writes:) "Parents, bring
170      V, 18    |           Creator, because of the apostle's additional description, "
171      V, 18    |         heavenly places;" for the apostle was quite aware that "spiritual

175      V, 19    |         Christ, so here also (the apostle) declares that he "fills
176      V, 19    |          in this sentence (of the apostle's) all heresies are condemned,

180      V, 20    |         CHANGE THEREOF.~When (the apostle) mentions the several motives

183      V, 20    |        suppose that they have the apostle on their side in the following
184      V, 20    |           in another passage (the apostle) calls Christ "the image
185      V, 20    |        not truly God, because the apostle places Him in the image
186      V, 20    |         of His flesh, because the apostle could not have pronounced
